OVERALL ABILITY ON THE COURT:

My best ability in the court is my mental strength; I can perform good shots and take good decisions under high pressure. When I´m down on the score I play better, and usually, end up winning. I maintain the calm at all times, when I have match point, or when things are not going the way I planned to, which helps me have clarity the whole match. Also, my backhand helps me to clear the strategy I had planned, so my backhand is more consistent and with better placement of the ball.

STRENGTHS ON THE COURT:

– Forehand attack.

– Consistent and efficient backhand.

– Good performance on the backcourt.

– Good return of service, backhand, and forehand.

– Good placement with my service.

My best ability on the court is playing on the baseline, I can attack and open the court with both, backhand and forehand, usually, my game pattern involves opening the court with my backhand and look for my forehand to end the point or vice versa. I feel more comfortable playing with the first pattern because my backhand is as aggressive as my forehand, but much more consistent. I really like playing in the backcourt zone, I feel more comfortable and confident, because I know I can place the ball wherever I want, and it’s going to be in. No matter if I´m in a defensive position or attack position, every hit of mine reflects confident and strength. I can start an aggressive point with the return of the service by hitting the ball earlier and with good depth.

HOBBIES AND PERSONAL INTEREST

When I have some free time, I spend it on reading not only literature but all kind of articles and books, I love going to parks or camp houses to enjoy myself or having time with family or friends. I love doing social services, I tend to do one social service per month, usually, I do it whit my family, but I try to encourage my friends to do it as well.
